First of all take a look at this thread.
So, if you want to root your phone:
How to Root Samsung Galaxy gio
Download root gb updated.zip file. and copy to SD card (not in any folder)
1. Shutdown/Power Off your Gio.
2. Put your phone in recovery Mode(press: Home button + Power button toghether)
3. In recovery mode, select Update from SD-card(Use Volume keys to navigate and home button for enter).
4. Search for the root gb updated.zip file on your SD-card
5. Run the update
6. Reboot
Phone will be turned on , An App SuperUser will be added , its mean you successfully done rooting , now you must be thinking you have done rooting and nothing really changed, let me tell you my friends its the first step real thing begins after this , read the whole thread and you'll find much more things than you imagined.
Alright, that link is dead, and I don't have my USB cable right now to upload it for you, but I think somebody else can do this for you.
For installing CWM look here. There's step-by-step tutorial and download link.
Then you're ready to look and try some custom roms, if you want of course.
Thanks, but yes root gb updated zip link is dead....

mount usb on your phone, not in recovery but in normal booting, you need to enable mass disk storage.

What to do if i put my the root filr into my sd card and update already,and i reboot then it seems the same,why is it so?
Because there is nothing to see, you just give yourself more rights,
just like a administrator in windows.
If everything whent well than you will see a app called Super User.
Just try root checker, you can find it in the market
can i use root gb updated.zip for any other mobile also ... like micromax a 25 ,,,, ?

hi @MyDeSTiNaTe
I think this thread needs Frequently Asked Questions.. (FAQ)
1. Does it needs root?
2.etc..
and better you ask forum moderator (you know juzz -Justin-) to make this thread as a sticky thread
and screenshot
this thread is important isn't it?

CWM is for flashing custom ROMs
wow cool.
but how to take a backup from my original ROM or Firmware ?!
@JAZMY
reboot to CWM.. turn off, then turn on by pressing vol up + home + power.. you will see SAMSUNG logo, you can release those buttons..
then use:
- home button : to select
- vol up : up
- vol down : down
- power button : go back
before backup, you can select your backup format, tar or dup.. with tar, you'll get the files larger, but there's only 11 files there.. and faster for copying to pc.. for dup, smaller backup (but if you want to do many backups, if just one backup, of course larger).. but hundreds of folders and files, and of course slower for copying to pc
how to select:
- backup & restore ~> choose backup format ~> tar or dup
then go to:
- backup & restore ~> backup or backup to external sd card..
- wait for progress
- back, reboot system now
if you want to move your backup to your pc, just take the "clockworkmod" folder in sdcard or external sd to your pc.. rar or zip it recommended due file safety, but do not compress to high, better do not compress (compress level = store)..
THIS THREAD IS JUST FOR ASKING ABOUT FLASHING CWM WITH ODIN, NOT ABOUT BACKUP OR ETC..
THIS IS AN OFF TOPIC POST.. WANT TO ASKING, MAKE A NEW THREAD ON GENERAL SECTION, OR ASK IN ASKING THREAD..
SORRY @MYDESTINATE
I HOPE THIS IS THE LAST OFF TOPIC POST
@JAZMY I HAVE ANSWER YOUR QUESTION.. BETTER DON'T REPLY
I already have CWM 5.5 in my phone, So If I want to upgrade into CWM 6, How ?
Same steps which I use to CWM 5.5 via Odin ?

Hi! I have successfully flashed CWM 6.0.1.2 on my device but recently I found out that CWM has updated to 6.0.3.0. Is it safe for me to update my CWM to the latest version using this steps? If I messed up can I just downgrade to 6.0.1.2 by just following your instructions? Im a super noob please help me..
Via terminal emulator is the easiest way. Just download an adb version on cwm thread, extract it with root explorer and follow this step: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1924846 :thumbup:

Updated 11-17-12: Now that we have a stable CWMR image thanks to damien667 this procedure should be a lot less risky and less stressful!
This is confirmed working but due to the procedure involved is risky! The standard XDA disclaimer applies: I take no responsibility for bricked devices due to the following rooting procedure, no warranty express or implied is given, I will not be held responsible if you mess up your tablet by following this procedure!
You must unlock the bootloader before performing this procedure!
Credits: Kidgoo for testing and coming up with the method, thanks to damien667 for the fixed CWM images, and Chainfire for the SuperSu zip and binaries!
Before you begin make sure you read and reread the procedure and fully understand the directions.
1. Download the CWM-SuperSU-v0.98.zip
2. Download damien667's fixed CWMR 6.0.1.6 touch version of from here
3. Connect the Nexus 10 to your computer
4. Flash the CWMR image you downloaded in step 2 using fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/<recovery>.img

You will need to download the latest vesion of ADB included in the Android SDK, which can be found here.
Perhaps a video?
Perhaps you could provide a video to help us along?

Yep, my ADB was out of date... Thanks!
Got the latest version of ADB?
With regard to downloading the CWM-SuperSU file (for sideloading) do you mean that it should be downloaded on the tab itself, or downloaded into the same folder as adb and fastboot?

If my Nexus 10 had arrived yet then I would be more then happy to post a video until then you'll have to make due with the written guide I'm afraid . But if you or any one else has any questions regarding the procedure feel free to ask!

If you download it on your tablet you'll need to then place the downloaded zip on the root of the internal storage (I.E not in a folder). Alternatively you can download it using a computer and connect your tablet to the computer and transfer it to the root of the internal storage that way.
I know this is probably a noob question but the fastboot commands (the first two, for booting from CWRT) -- should they be done in Fastboot Mode or can they be done while Nexus 10 is on and at home screen with USB debugging enabled? If you need to be in Fastboot Mode, how do you get there with Nexus 10?
Thanks!

Ok, the problem I have now is while I have the files on my tablet, I cannot move them to the root of the internal storage at this point...??? Suggestions??? Don't you have to be rooted in order to do this???
For some reason when I'm not in fastboot mode, I can use adb (adb devices lists my Nexus 10), but when I'm in fastboot mode, adb no longer recognizes the device. fastboot devices does however see it when in fastboot mode.
Anybody else have this problem or know why this might be happening? Thanks!
I'm still getting the sideload error after updating the ADB
Any insight, please?
So to others who are working on this and awaiting responses from the OP, where exactly have you placed the downloaded files on your tablet? specific locations?? and if so how did you get them there? I'm totally lost at this point, LOL, hoping to get some clarification soon...
Worked ... however .. you DO have to be in FASTBOOT already (power + Vol UP + Vol DOWN) - yeah it might be obvious when you're not tired as hell - but for those wondering
The first line should be:
fastboot boot /path/to/<recovery>.img
no fastboot reboot was needed - it rebooted itself.
I had a HELL of a time finding the sideload entry in CWM (that's just my brain deadness).
You have quite a bit of time More than enough.
THANK YOU!
Ok, so I thought I still had the zip on my device after not being able to recall my gesture pattern lock. I could still access the device by logging into through my google account however I couldn't change the lock itself without doing a system wipe.(To my knowledge)
So now I'm stuck in TWRP with no rom to flash to my device, when I connect my nexus 7 to a notebook (win7) I do not get the MTP connection to drag and drop a rom over.
Everything I seemed to try in the ToolKit as well has been unsuccessful, can someone give me a step by step on how to push,flash,install PAC back onto my device and remove this headache of mine.
Thanks in advance!

For future reference, I think you can send and email to your google account to reset your gesture lock.
If you want to flash a rom onto your device just use the toolkit. Should find what you need in Advanced utilities.
Where is the advanced utilities in the tool kit? you must have the wording wrong.
Wish I knew about the reset prior to the this mess >.<

TWRP works with adb. Plug it in to your computer with the adb tools installed, run adb devices, you should see it listed. Change to the folder with your ROM zip, do adb push <rom>.zip /sdcard and it'll be on your device. No fuss, no muss.

This is the driver you need in order to use ADB while in recovery in addition to the Google Driver or else you would see "Flo" under Unknown Devices in your computer device manager.

Thanks I'm wiping the drivers and attempting your method! I'll be back with questions if I have any.:cyclops:
There we go, I had to use a different link in order to download the Minimal ADB And Fastboot Kit.
From there I was able to push the rom onto the device no problem what so ever thanks everyone!
DeeSlivers said:
For some reason the link you provided for ADB and Fastboot doesn't work. My device does show up as a ADB device in the device manager. However I'm still unsure how exactly I push or flash a rom from the notebook to the device itself.
Also his verison of ToolKit isn't what I been using, I have the terminal like green font'd 2013 toolkit by skipsoft is what I have outdated and no longer used or?

Yust use this command:
Code:
adb push (your rom file name) /mnt/sdcard/
Then go to flash menu and you will se your rom in your internal sd card
Ok, so I managed to re-flash my rom back on no problems at all. But problem with that is the gesture lock is still active.
Can someone give me a method to remove this from the account?
Try aroma file manager to delete gesture. Key

Have you read the thread what so ever..?
Yes the device is rooted, it's running PAC Rom newest Nightly.
The issue is, everytime I load the device I get the gesture lock which I don't have the correct information to. I want to reset the password back to a pattern or pin. Cause as of this point it requires me to login to my google account every time I fail to put the gesture in, meaning unless I have access to the wifi zone my device can't be logged into.
You need to install cwm recovery mode. You need to download aromafm1.80.zip file from net. It will be 1.4 mb. Place the file in external SD card. Go into recovery mode. Mount all partitions in advanced section. Then go to the file in SD card in recovery mode and flash the zip file there. Aroma file manager will open. Then go to data/system/gesture.key and delete that key. And reboot device. Pattern will appear but if you draw any pattern., the device will be unlocked

You're telling me a several step process to "work around" the issue, instead of actually fixing it which isn't what I been asking.
It will remove the pattern lock

you can disable signature verification in cwm if you need to
this is how I root my sgy
download cwm
download valkyrie 1.5
put both zips on root of sd card
put phone into recovery mode (vol up home button power button)
install zip
select cwm
now cwm starts
goto mounts and storage
make sure system is mounted (it will display "unmount system" if system is mounted - if it says "mount system" select it so it changes to "unmount system")
go back and select install zip from sd card
select valkyrie zip
select superuser by chainsdd
restart
this will work on any 5360 stock rom although it may not work with some operator varients

There are lots of threads available on rooting this particular piece of hardware, and this thread offers nothing new and/or revolutionary.
